Crohns and Colitis - Fabian supports the National Awareness Week

Crohns and Colitis Awareness Week

Fabian is supporting his constituents by raising awareness for those living with the daily struggle of a debilitating bowel disease.

Crohn’s and Colitis Awareness Week is taking place from 1st to 7th December; highlighting the impact of living with Crohn’s Disease or Ulcerative Colitis, the two main forms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) , which are unpredictable diseases that affect more than 300,000 people across the UK and as many as 252,000 people in England.

Fabian says;

“Helping increase understanding as part of Crohn’s and Colitis Awareness week is important to me as there will be hundreds of local people in our community who suffer from these hidden, often misunderstood and dreadful conditions. In this special week, it’s particularly vital that we try and reach out to more people who may be feeling isolated or coping badly with their health.”
